Scholars are given preferential treatment everywhere, especially talented people.

Luo Guanzhong spread from Nantong Mansion to the surrounding areas with the force of one person passing it on to ten people, and ten people passing it on to a hundred people.

An academy in Nantong Prefecture.

Several young people were sitting around a group. There was a pot of tea, two plates of snacks, and a lot of paper and pens on the table.

"Luo Wei, who is this Luo Guanzhong in your family?" one of the young men asked.

The young man called Luo Wei shook his head, "If there was such a person in my clan, would I still have the heart to sit here and chat with you? I would have asked to see my uncle a long time ago!"

Everyone's family is not considered wealthy.

But for families who have enough money for their children to study, at least food and clothing are not a problem.

Several people spent money to buy a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms together, but there was only one book and everyone wanted to read it.

So they sat around and started copying.

Although the pen and ink are more expensive, the more expensive paper can be replaced by straw paper. Copying a copy and buying a knife of paper is enough to rub it, and it can also be smoothed by people around you.

In this way, in the streets and alleys of Nantong Prefecture, many scholars sat together to enjoy this book.

Even the storytellers in the teahouse have switched to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"Last time we talked about how Zhang Fei rushed to the pass, and the arrows rained down like rain, and he was not allowed to go back. The eight princes also invited Xuande, Guan, and Zhang to congratulate him..."

A cadence of voice sounded in the teahouse.

A group of scholars sat below, as well as an illiterate person who came to have tea. They all stared at the stage with bated breath, listening with great interest.

This book is an idle book, but the details, plots, conspiracies and conspiracies in it are very exciting to read, and are more vivid than the few strokes in history books.

The more you taste it, the more refreshing you feel, as if the clouds and rain of the Three Kingdoms are right in front of you.

If Yuntao knew about it, she would definitely complain about it in her heart.

There are so many enjoyable novels in later generations. There are tens of millions of novels of various kinds, and I would probably never finish them all in a lifetime.

The sales of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" have increased, and so have the sales of Qingyun Bookstore's papyrus.

Those wealthy and wealthy families would not even bother using this papyrus.

Later I heard that Mr. Luo, who wrote "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", accidentally found this recipe while browsing history books. He said it was handed down from the Three Kingdoms period, so he sold it together with the book.

Another theory is that Mr. Luo was a poor old man. When he wrote the book, the manuscript of the book was written on papyrus, so he sold the papyrus on the side.

No matter whether this statement is credible or not.

But for the majority of students in Nantong Prefecture, having papyrus can save them a lot of money.

After all, those big families who don't worry about using paper are in the minority. Even the official families have the distinction between legitimate sons and common sons.

A legitimate son does not have to worry about money, but a concubine who wants to study, learn to read, and socialize with his classmates will inevitably have difficulties.

There are many petty officials among them. Although they are glamorous in front of the people, in private they earn barely enough money to support their families every month.

If you don't send your children to school, it will be difficult to continue the family's glory.

For this reason, I search and search every month, hoping that my child will have a bright future.

In this way, many more people went to Qingyun Bookstore to buy paper.

As the prefect, Chen Gui naturally knew some information that was unclear below.

He knew which company produced the popular "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in Nantong Mansion.

He also knew what was going on in Li'an County.

Chen Gui carefully rubbed the papyrus in his hand, and then used the pen to write against the candlelight. The paper was of good quality.

This paper can be used in the yamen.

The market for Li'an straw paper suddenly opened up, and the paper mill was busy all day long.

When there was a shortage of hay and branches, the paper mill turned to the surrounding people to purchase them.

For this reason, many poor people can earn a few pennies by cutting firewood.

However, there were many problems caused by cutting firewood.

Yuntao spent a lot of money to plant a batch of saplings in Li'an, waiting for them to flourish and be put into production.

Some people are lazy and just pull up saplings to make up for the loss.

Fortunately, the person who was responsible for counting the branches every day was very serious. He saw that some of the saplings were not right. Why had he never seen them before? When he asked about them, he found that they were saplings planted by the county owner.

So, the people from the Yamen immediately went to that person's house.

Those in the family who were studying trades in the county were dismissed immediately.

Whoever dug the sapling was caught and imprisoned for several days, and then sentenced to several months of hard labor.

To this end, the county magistrate also asked the police officers to go door to door to notify.

If anyone dares to pull out the saplings planted by the county master again, he will definitely not be spared lightly.

People inside and outside the clan will also be punished and expelled from Li'an.

Yuntao also heard about this matter, and she had no objection to Xia Jihe's handling of it.

The people in the mountains and fields cannot be said to be completely honest, but they are not treacherous or evil people either.

It can only be said that when you become rich, you must also take into account the education of the people.

Otherwise, if they have money, they don’t know how to use it properly, or they will be deceived by outsiders.

Yuntao rubbed his forehead, as expected it was not easy to be the county head.

Nantong Mansion, Yin family.

With the release of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the business of Chonghai Bookstore is getting deserted day by day.

There is no other way, because Qingyun Bookstore can also allow students to copy books.

There are even a lot more rules. Those who can recite poems and compose poems on the spot, regardless of limericks or quatrains, as long as they are related to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" can receive a prize of a piece of paper.

So scholars flocked to Qingyun Bookstore like crazy.

There is no such thing as copyright protection these days.

Seeing the good sales of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", other small bookstores are also secretly printing books and selling them, not Nantong Prefecture, but other places.

Chonghai Bookstore also wants to sell it.

But even if they printed it secretly, they couldn't print it completely.

Because there is only the first half of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on the market, no one from Qingyun Bookstore said when the second half will be released. This is why everyone is frantically looking for Mr. Luo.

What about the next volume?

I read half of the previous volume and it was heart-wrenching. Why is the next volume missing?

Only Qingyun Bookstore in Jin Dynasty knew about Mr. Luo and the unfinished second half of the volume.

Only then did Qingyun Bookstore have its current lively scene.

There is an endless stream of people copying books, asking for information, and coming to buy books.

Along with the popularity of the straw paper business, the Yin family's paper business has also been affected.

"Just because of a book, you have managed the bookstore business like this?" the second master of the Yin family lost his temper in the backyard.

Behind him stood a group of men, old and young, all looking down at their toes.

"Father, I know whose family this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" belongs to. It belongs to Yun Huachun from Chaoyang Academy. He must have a grudge to create this." Yin Fan hurriedly stepped forward and said.

There is still a volume of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" printed by his own bookstore in his room. Thinking of Yun Huachun's sarcastic words and resentment that the book was not finished, he shelved the volume in a high cabinet.

I don't want to throw it away, I just put it there and don't read it again.

Didn’t Yun Huachun say he couldn’t print?

Why go back on your word?
Chapter completed!
